    I live near King's Hawaiian restaurant and the best part about eating there is you get complimentary rolls with your meal.

    ETA - no food is the enemy.

    I agree - our brains are the enemy. If we could figure out how to shut off the craving/constant thought of things we want, losing weight would be a lot simpler.

    That's basically the thesis of my approach. I asked myself that question years back and worked on the answer. The answer I found is...you cannot and shouldn't shut off. However, one can very effectively manage it through effective managing of calories and eating schedule. Craving won't be around if you satisfy it. No thoughts if you're not hung up. That means, you truly eat. But what about creating a deficit? This is where your brain comes in. Conditioning. Scheduling. Identifying patterns, reactions of the body. It's as easy as we are conditioned not to get up at 1am to grill a steak to satisfy some impulse. No such urge or impulse.

    For me, it has to be like this to be sustainable. I won't carry a scale everywhere, won't skip company's free ice cream/churros day, won't turn down a friend's offer to take me out. Cheers.
